About Us

A little bit about us and what we do.

The Kilt shop as we know it today has been a long time in the making. It was way back in the early eighties when Dennis Booth took his first tentative steps into highland wear, and he quickly established himself as a market leader trading successfully as A’ The Best Fae Scotland on Edinburgh’s famous Royal Mile until 2003. He opened this Galashiels shop in the summer of 2000 which is still going strong.

I joined Dennis in the summer of 2010 at The Kilt Shop in Galashiels in the heart of the Scottish Borders. We have built a large and loyal customer base and with their support have gone from strength to strength establishing ourselves as kilt makers with a reputation for quality and customer service.

In February 2016 Dennis announced his retirement and I have taken over this business - so begins the next chapter in the success story that is The Kilt Shop.

Building on the hard work and experience gained over the past 35 years, our aim is to continue supplying a blend of Classic and Contemporary Highland wear, both for sale and through our premier hire range. Each and every garment is made to the highest standard using traditional methods handed down through generations. We are proud to be members of the Scottish Tartans Authority.We hope you enjoy shopping with us..
